Bird Droppings: Patrick Peterson returns to Arizona Cardinals, checking in on the rookies potential preseason changes and more

Happy Tuesday one and all.

The long wait on the arrival of Patrick Peterson is over and it allows us to move on to other lingering questions during organized team activities and next week, mandatory minicamp.
